Cala Tortuga

Cala Tortuga is a gorgeous, unspoiled sandy bay on Menorca's north coast where you drop anchor and swim ashore to fine white sand and crystal-clear turquoise water. It sits right next to the smaller Cala Presili, and from the water you get a great view of the Cap de Cavalleria lighthouse crowning the headland above. There's no development here — just wild dunes, clean shallows, and a beach that somehow stays relatively quiet.
